Really? Definite? Permanent? Where to?

Bit gutted by that to be honest...

Too many wools ITK

The less ITKs we have, the better Everton are doing their job. The better Everton do their job, the more successful they will be. The more successful Everton are, the happier you are.

DEATH TO ALL ITKS.

A bold stance from Chico, let's see how this plays out.

Southampton about to splash 21m on Boufal. A lot for them!

And here we see the utmost importance of the club tightening up all their communications so our competitors don't know about our transfer targets and negotiations.

There's only so much Everton can do, though. I think we're already a pretty tight ship in that regard.

The agent is always going to be the weak spot, it's in their interest to get the word out as a means of alerting clubs that might make a more lucrative offer.

He'll sign for Liverpool next summer for £55m.

Nope, never seen him.

Interesting.

So he has played for Cambridge and Oxford now?

Is he secretly a quantum physics professor moonlighting as a footballer?

Conspiracy.

I'd like to thank everyone for their love, support but mostly for their condemnation and mocking, before I take my final bow.

Love for you all x

I agree but I don't see how that's possible given the amount of parties involved in a transfer who are privvy to any sort of detail at all. If there was a leak in the club that would be a different matter and subject to disciplinary procedures I would assume.

It's in players interests to make known any approach.

Apart from a few soundbites from Koeman and Moshiris comments, the club have said absolutely nothing of note about transfers, and nor should they.

Everton could make their deals in a sealed underground bunker - the deal would still leak from the selling club, the player or his agent. There is no keeping deals secret in football.

Good luck, Ryan.

I meant to put that, you're spot on, the problem is the agent and sometimes they want it in the public domain to attract other bids.

Everton are a lot tighter for info than they were three years ago.

Agent leaks ramp up player wages. Player wages ramp up agent fees.

Happy agents = spilled rumours.

Bastian Schweinsteiger mate

I can't believe I am saying this but at this point he might not be a bad signing for a season or two. Him and Barry could rotate that position.

He still looked good at the Euros.
